Bladed implement,
Cutting through shaving cream snow:
Fields of fresh stubble.

mist covers the stubble fields
between dusk and dawn

Short stubble streaked with gray
A scarred face and eyes that know
Its a decade short of the crisis
But forty is already in tow...

Don Ho was always in trouble
For blowing a tiny bubble
When Ida was born
His cheeks went unshorn
The egg on his face was stubble...

My friend has got a new girlfriend
And he’s sleeping with her and her twin
I asked how he could tell them apart
He said her brother has stubble on his chin...

too much of everything
too much trouble
too much hate 
not enough stubble
I remember a piece 
of a poem once
but now I forgot
I don't even know where
it is....

Summer’s bleached itself
to bone and stubble. Mirage
is shimmer, false reflection.

First ice on the pond
a mirror of last winter
so coldly perfect, shattered....

Chocolate curls make love-
To sun bleached pieces,
Graze my smile-
With cheeks of stubble,
And laughs of light,
Inch by inch-
Nearing my skin,
Slay me with the kiss....

now is glare caged and pasted dry 
where once wet opened drapery skin so wide
 
moments stubble the truth even as it chews
on dreams stored in eyes’ dark crawlspace...

This limerick could be quite a chiller;
as a movie would be a nice thriller.
Who set fire to the wheat? 
Leaving stubble and heat -
I hope they catch the cereal killer....

my breath on your chin’s stubble,

I stroke your strong calloused hands

and feel your desire surging. . . . 

Welcome home, Darling.

Though not meant to offend,
I simply won’t pretend
you are the Adam’s apple
of my eye.

That stubble and those hands
may pass on OnlyFans,
but quick’s the brain to grapple:
that’s a guy.

A hirsute young lady named Tash
Decided to do something rash
She shaved off her stubble
Oh boy she’s in trouble – 
Tash now sports a beard and moustache

When Di had a Brazilian wax
Her beautician was terribly lax
The beautician’s in trouble
Di’s got itchy red stubble
Poor Di’s scratching her pubes to the max!

Wind’s a’whipping;
Branches thrashing.
Chairs are flipping;
Teeth are gnashing.

Garbage flying;
Scarves wrapped double.
Those home sighing,
Sweats and stubble.

Wind chill saying
It’s much colder.
Those out paying,
Being bolder....

Well, if for nothing else, I'm good for a chuckle
You can count on me before you remove your stubble
Okay, ladies, this doesn't mean you
Means before getting prettied up, woo hoo
But take care, too much strain on the giggler is not advisable...

smoke mushrooms up and out
stubble, grass, weeds - cower
metamorphosis into clouds
bringing hope for rain
implements scratch the ground
to sow what could become
almost a saviour - but not really
thunderclaps herald
soothing moisture
for scars on the ground...

Cuddly soft and so cute,
the baby cheeks were ruddy,
with out grown breaths,
I was rubbing mine against his,
I had a stubble growth,
and it was stinging fast,
baby had reasons to cry,
but it knew it was mine,
it clutched me more,
with undefined emotions,
did not attempt,
to open and pry....
